| Form : |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Bio-activity : |
The ED50 as determined by its ability to bind to immobilized rh-sFlt-1 in a functional ELISA. PlGF-1 human Recombinant can bind to immobilized rh-sFlt-1 (100ng/well) with a linear range at 0.5-10ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1x10^5-2x10^6 units/mg. |
| Molecular Mass : |
34 kDa |
| N-terminal Sequence Analysis : |
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Met-Leu-Pro-Ala-Val. |
| Purity : |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Usage : |
This products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals. |
| Storage : |
Lyophilized Placenta Growth Factor 1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 centigrade. Upon reconstitution PLGF1 should be stored at 4 centigrade between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 centigrade.
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Storage Buffer : |
Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 50mM acetic acid. |
| Reconstitution : |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Placenta Growth Factor 1 in sterile 0.1M acetic acid not less than 100 µg/mL, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
